Second Place in Puppy, Judge: Tracey Anscombe (Orangebox)
Thank you to the committee of this fantastic, friendly and well organised show for the appointment to judge originally the Border Terriers, but due to the group judge Colin Richardson falling fowl to a dodgy Chinese I was extremely honoured to be able to cover his breed classes with Darwin Martin completing the AV and Group. I wish Colin a speedy recovery. Thank you to the exhibitors for bringing their dogs.
Super 9 month old Blue and Tan dog who when walked into the ring I thought would be my winner, he has real ring presence with out being flashy. Larger framed than 1st and caring more bone and condition which unfortunately made him harder to span. Excels in head with a true vaminty glare. In harsh jacket with ticking coming on his muscular thighs. Well set on tail used on the move which he certainly does. A lot to like.
